From ‘Circuit Bakers’ to Dalgona coffee baristas, almost everyone has been clocking OT on their home appliances since our self-quarantines began.
Extra usage has also likely caused some wear and tear on our trusty fridges & ovens.
With hybrid Work From Home (WFH) arrangements looming till 2021, it could be time to replace that dusty, squeaky ceiling fan so the fam can get a good night’s rest.
Since you’re already comfortable browsing the Internet from your WFH nook, you can stay put and shop for what you need online, via the new home appliance website CASA.
The bulky items will arrive right at your doorstep, so there’s no need to use your annual leave just to check your options in a physical store.

Since you’ve got the cleaning sorted out, mum won’t complain about you being lazy anymore and might even reward you with a sumptuous meal.
Upgrading her to an induction hob may be moving too quickly, so this stainless steel gas hob might be more up her alley.

Don’t judge its simple exterior as the inside has more than enough space to store sinful snacks like ice cream tubs and that cake you didn’t finish 2 Netflix marathons ago.
If you’d rather bake your own cake than buy it, CASA also has built-in ovens that’ll make ‘Circuit Bakers’ scream “Basque Burnt Cheesecake”.
That bittersweet burnt top and gooey middle you’d want for your cake will surely be achievable with this multifunctional oven by EF.

No need to scour Instagram for affordable bakes anymore, as you can whip up your own.
All that cooking may leave a strong stench on your clothes, and you’d need a good washer to get that off. This all-white Elba model has 15 washing programmes, so your laundry will probably end up as spotless as the machine itself.

Ambitious home cooks who try to prepare a huge lunch may not have time to dry that one formal top you need for the urgent Zoom meeting, so a washer-cum-dryer might be a better fit.

A single machine that can do all the cleaning and drying — can we sign up for a BTO with Beko instead?
From big ticket items like refrigerators & stoves, or smaller ones like vacuum cleaners & bathroom accessories, you can get them from the Internet to your doorstep via a few clicks on CASA’s website.
Simply hop over to their online store, add what you need to your cart and check out.
You may have an overgrown list of different memberships already, but adding CASA to that won’t hurt.
From Friday (25 Sep), new sign-ups get 100 CASA Dollars credited automatically — which can be used upon checkout. All members enjoy 15% rebate via CASA dollars with every purchase.
The headache with buying bulky items is sorting out the delivery process, which usually either costs a lot or requires you to liaise with a third party.
Thankfully, the process is more seamless on CASA, as they offer delivery — for free too.
The $799 for that fancy washer-cum-dryer will be all that you’re painfully parting with, as there are no extra delivery charges.
Constantly using the same appliances you’ve had for years throughout this indefinite WFH period can be a chore, especially when they’re showing signs of wear and tear.
Update them with any of the products on CASA, and you’ll be able to work and chill comfortably from your home-turned-office.
Who knows, you’ll even get cosy enough that you’ll forget you had an actual office to return to one day.
